"Girl From the North Country"- Mandolin Cover

(find my originals on iTunes! http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/using-a-coup-stick/id385457095) Girl from the North Country was originally written by Bob Dylan. This performance is based directly upon the version performed by mandolin virtuoso Sam Bush. Even parts of the solos were meticulously transcribed from Sam Bush's improvisation; I especially like the part near the end where he references Jessica by the Allman Brothers....so props to Mr. Bush.




My name is Bryan Brown, and this is one of MANY mandolin videos on my channel at www.youtube.com/bbrizzy89 .

I was wondering what type of mandolin that was?

[bbrizzy89]

@sleepyduo37 Hey sure it's just an Epiphone MM-30E.. acoustic electric. Cheap thing... gets the job done though!

[lazycrazy24]

CHORDS PLEASE!!!

[bbrizzy89]

lol- intro riff/refrain thing is G to C. A verse is about two beats each like this:

G D Em D C D C-G G/F# Em D C refrain... G G/F# Em D C refrain

That's like one verse- very crudely but in the right order lol.

This is awesome! Though it is clearly based on the Sam Bush version (love that one), you made it your own. I like the nice, sort of percussive rhythm you play. I can also hear something very country-like in your vocals, might be what you were going for. I never saw this one being covered by you, but it just might become a new favorite!

[toxicmegacolon]

Well done!

[sleepyduo37]

@sleepyduo37 Well cheap or not I like the sound. I've been looking into getting a mandolin for the holidays and I like the one you've got. Idk if i'll go with the electric in it, but I know they make Epiphone MM-30 just acoustic. Thanks for the response.
